Although Roland’s “credit line” indicates that he is executive director of CodeX, that is only a very small part of his activities aimed toward building a new way to look at and use legal information. After early stints with the European Commission and the European Parliament, Roland began the United States phase of his career in California. He joined Stanford in 2003, where he became head of the Stanford Program in Law, Science & Technology. Five years later he became the executive director of CodeX, the Stanford Center for Legal Informatics, and a hotbed of legal innovation. Within Stanford he spearheaded the development of the Stanford Intellectual Property Exchange (SIPIX), which addressed content licensing issues in legal education and was eventually spun off from Stanford. In his work at Stanford, Roland has had as his aim what has become the aim of CodeX: “[T]o advance the frontier of legal technology, bringing new levels of legal efficiency, transparency, and access to legal systems around the world.”
